You knew it was coming. It is unavoidable. It is your destiny. Angry Birds is journeying to a galaxy far, far away. Today, a gameplay trailer was released that, in addition to revealing a pink Princess Leia bird (excuse me while I check off number 7 on my list of "Phrases I Never Thought I'd Have To Write"), shows our avian heroes wielding light sabers and shooting lasers out of their eyes to bring down AT-AT walkers.
You can't deny that Angry Birds is the biggest franchise going in mobile gaming, racking up hundreds of millions of downloads across its various platforms. It was only a matter of time before developer Rovio's licensing ambitions took it beyond some logical tie-ins (like Dreamworks' 2011 kid flick Rio). On November 8th, the aggravated avians will be going where pretty much every single major franchise has gone before: to the Star Wars universe.
How do you follow up an earth-shattering hit like Angry Birds? Not with Amazing Alex, Rovio's first property to branch out of their only previous IP. The game currently sits with only a tiny fraction of the downloads of Angry Birds, even on the free version. So with the third go-round, they've gone back to create a spinoff featuring the antagonists of the aggravated avians: Bad Piggies. The new game is a combination of the previous two, combining the simple physics-based goals of Angry Birds and the contraption building of Amazing Alex.
Bad Piggies, Rovio's much-awaited spin-off from Angry Birds has just hit the Play Store. For those unaware, Rovio's latest game has been in the works for some time now. The game features the same dastardly pigs you spent hours upon hours crushing in Angry Birds, but this time they're the protagonists…sort of.
Payers are challenged to work against gravity and physics in Piggies to take these pigs through various wild environments in contraptions and flying machines of their own design.
This little piggy had some great success. This little piggy had none. This little piggy, however, has us wondering what's going on all the way home. Rovio announced today that, in a few weeks, we'll be seeing a sequel to Angry Birds arrive on the Play Store. Instead of being built from the ground up this time (or, rather, being bought from the ground up), this one will feature the mild-mannered pigs that you've spent so much time destroying.
It's taken a while to get to this point, but we're finally here. A new era for mobile gaming. From tomorrow forward, the world as you know it will cease to be the same. Why? Because after today, Rovio will have a game that isn't Angry Birds-related on the Play Store. What is the game? Do you even care? It's Amazing Alex. If you've ever played a contraption-building game, it'll look familiar to you.
While not quite as famous among the Android gaming community as, say, Rovio or Square Enix, Com2uS has had its fair share of hits - most notably, the company has churned out such popular games as Homerun Battle 3D and Slice It. Now, the devs are back at it with something of an Angry Birds look-a-like: Swing Shot.
Rather than shooting birds at pigs, however, Swing Shot starts off with monkeys shooting stones at other monkeys, albeit ones that have been cursed by an evil witch (after, that is, you either create an account or log in as a guest - I just opted for the latter).
It's been nearly two years since Angy Birds landed on Android and a mere nine months earlier the most popular game in mobile launched on iOS. Rovio has certainly done well for itself, what with hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue from game and merchandise sales. Angry Birds can't last forever, though. So, what's next from the agents of avian assault? Amazing Alex, a game that promises to be more educational than its predecessor.
Maybe you weren't waiting up til 4am EST, eagerly anticipating the release of Angry Birds Space. That is what you have us for, after all. If you were, though, you might remember that only one version of the app made it to the Play Store that night: the free version. Later, though, Rovio released "Angry Birds Space Premium," which is the ad-free version of the app. Now, Rovio has released Angry Birds Space HD.
Ever since a hardware manufacturer went to a music festival to announce a video game about birds flying into space, the internet has been waiting for Angry Birds Space to launch. Well, the countdown is finally over, and Angry Birds Space is now stationed at Amazon's Appstore.
As per usual, the game is free if you like ads, or $0.99 on the Appstore for an ad-free experience. Amazon also has an HD version of the ad-free game for the Kindle Fire available on the Appstore.

Gerard Way Signing 4/08
Well, I've been waiting for someone else to post a much more awesome re-cap of the signing Gerard did Tuesday at Things From Another World in Portland… But no one has, so I'll post my crappy, second-hand retelling of the event…
I go to school in Eugene, and happen to have most of my classes this term on Tuesday, so unfortunately, I could not attend. So, I did what any college student would do: I sent my mom xD
My mom, being the awesome person that she is, went, taking all my Umbrella Academy comics with her, as well as buying the special edition with the cover Gerard drew when she got to the store.
After an hour of standing in line with screaming fan girls and such, mom finally got to Gerard, which took much longer than it should have since people were rude and decided it was ok to cut (for shame).
Gerard was sitting in the back of the store, hunched over a table, with sunglasses on. And, for all the people who give him a hard time about wearing sunglasses indoors…. think about this. The lady in front of my mom walked up to him, shoved a camera about a foot in front of his face, and took a picture, with the flash on. He'd be blind by now if it weren't for those Ray-Bans.
Anyways, he shook her hand and asked her name, and my mom mentioned she was there on behalf of me, who had class, to which he replied "It's good she stayed in class." Here's the rest of the not-verbatim conversation that sorta went like this:
Mom: Yeah, she's an art major at the University. She wants to intern this summer at Dark Horse.
Gerard: That's really great!
Mom: How do you stand the screaming?
Gerard: You know, I don't know.
Mom: Well, thanks a lot, and enjoy your stay in Portland.
Gerard: Thanks! I really like it here.
Eh… so yea, that's what my mom told me went down. Some people in line were pretty chill, one woman got her iPod signed, a ton others were trying to hurry so they could stand in line for the show later that night at the Crystal Ballroom (did anyone go, btw???). They ended up closing up about a half hour early since no one was there actually, which I kinda *headesk* at that thought, thinking I could have had an actual conversation about art, or comic books, or cake with him. I think mom had a rather exciting time, although you would never hear her admit it.

Other Pets at Tuffie's Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Mia, a Phoenix Labrador Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a Labrador Retriever dog from a breeder in Phoenix.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Phoenix already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Phoenix breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.

Standard Register: Where Innovation Has Led to a Century of Success
July 2014 By Erik Cagle, Senior EditorTo say the world of printed communications has undergone dramatic and even violent changes in the past 20 years would be something of an understatement. Even the past 10 years have witnessed changes that would have seemed unimaginable back in 2004. And, just imagine what 2024 may have to offer.
One of the venerable members of the printing and related services set is Standard Register, the Dayton, OH-based firm founded 102 years ago on the strength of Theodore Schirmer's pinfeed autographic register. Schirmer garnered a patent for feeding continuous forms through the autographic register, sold soon-to-be company founder John Sherman on the idea, and it became the industry "standard," hence the company name.
Frankly, the history lesson on Standard Register's product and service offerings, be it from 1912 or 2012, is somewhat moot. The larger point is that this firm has survived through the years, written and rewritten its business plan, and continues on the path of relevancy, as evidenced by its $720 million sales performance in 2013.
Innovation is king. That autographic register must have floored people during the Taft Administration and, 17 presidents later, the company maintains its innovative spirit. But what keeps the lights on is Standard Register's ability to closely monitor the needs of its client base and provide solutions—whether cranked out on manual machines or distributed via electronic dissemination.
"We're in a world where content is king, and how you purpose or repurpose that content is what drives the business," observes Joseph Morgan Jr., president and CEO of Standard Register. "Through the whole journey, we understand both workflow and content. Historically, we provided the structure by which content could be captured. That's essentially what a business form is. Today, we still do that, but more often than not, we combine the structure with the content and present it in an electronic and digital environment. Then it gets applied to paper."
Standard Register serves a number of key vertical markets, including health care, financial services, manufacturing and retail. Much of what the company provides entails marketing services, critical communications/customer communications and product marketing decoration.
Analytics to Maximize ROI
For example, Standard Register's Critical Communications Solution offers single-source design, production, processing, mailing/transmitting and fulfillment of printed and electronic documents. The firm uses analytics to enable its clients to better measure and understand the effectiveness of these communications, and to make necessary adjustments to yield optimal results.

Norbury is a town in the London Borough of Croydon, also crossing the London Borough of Merton. It shares the postcode London SW16 with nearby Streatham. Norbury is 6.7 miles (10.8 km) south of Charing Cross.
Contents |
The name Norbury derives from North Burh, (North Borough). Some local histories note that this was due to Norbury's position on the northern boundary of the former Manor of Croydon. In fact it takes its name from a split in the borough of Bensham, one of the former seven boroughs of Croydon. 'Northbenchesham' became the Northborough, then Norbury. 'Southbenchesham' later became Thornton Heath.
Norbury, like Streatham and Croydon, lies on the London to Brighton Way Roman road, the northern part of which has become the A23 road. At Hepworth Road the intact road, 32 feet wide, was excavated in 1961. Remnants of a metalled ford across the stream were found further south at Hermitage Bridge on the River Graveney which forms part of the boundary between Norbury and Streatham, before flowing on to the River Wandle, then the River Thames.[1]
Norbury was a sub-manor of Croydon Manor and was held by the Carew family between 1385 and 1859. The Carews also held Beddington. Norbury Farm was the manor house - it was demolished in 1914.
Norbury Hall, Craignish Avenue, does remain - now as a retirement home and a Grade II listed building. It was built for William Coles in 1802. In the late 19th century, its owner was James Hobbs, local businessman and fifth Mayor of Croydon who bought the house in 1884. A few years later, he was implicated in the Liberator Building Society scandal with Jabez Balfour, convicted and imprisoned. The Hobbs family owned the Hall until 1958 when it was sold to the County Borough of Croydon (from 1965 the London Borough of Croydon), with its gardens open to the public. By then most of the farms and open land belonging to Norbury Manor and Hall had been built upon. The London County Council built an estate of almost 500 homes in Norbury, one of its first 'Out-County' estates between 1906 and 1910.
Norbury railway station opened in 1878, although the railway line had opened in 1862. It was rebuilt in 1902 and connects Norbury with Croydon, London Bridge and London Victoria. Although Croydon's horse-tram network never reached Norbury, electric trams were introduced in 1901, connecting the town all the way through to Purley. However, Croydon trams and London trams used different systems and could not use the same tracks, leading through passengers to have to change in Norbury. This was finally rectified in 1925. The trams were removed after World War II but there are plans to extend Tramlink from Croydon to Streatham via Norbury.
Though considered to belong to the London Borough of Croydon about one third of the town (from Stanford way) crosses over to the London Borough of Merton.
During the Second World War the Norbury 5th Battalion of the Home Guard patrolled the town, it was a hugely successful platoon with a high reputation for efficiency and bravery.[citation needed] On the evening of 5 September 1940, the Norbury police reported to 5th Norbury Battalion that residents had observed enemy parachutists dropping on Norbury golf-course. Company Commanders were notified, and the platoon parading for the night sent in pursuit.[citation needed] The town did not escape heavy bombings during the war.[citation needed]
This list of "famous" or "notable" persons has no clear inclusion or exclusion criteria. Please help to define clear inclusion criteria and edit the list to contain only subjects that fit that criteria. (June 2012) |
Norbury is portrayed in a Sherlock Holmes short story, "The Adventure of the Yellow Face", as one of the few places in which the detective turned out to be wrong regarding his theories.

It seems that the metastasizing scandal at Rupert Murdoch's News Corp is finally having some repercussions on this side of the Atlantic, but naturally not in the way you'd think. Although ol' Rupert himself confirmed this week that that he is "cooperating" with the US Department of "Justice" on the FCPA implications of the hacking/bribery/influence peddling outrages that have gripped Britain for months, this is the Holder Justice Department after all, so he's not exactly quaking in his orthopedic loafers about that.

It'd be funny if you secretly taped her and put the tapes out on bittorrent. "Share" her thoughts with others.
Tell her she doesn't have a monopoly on a land of imagination and that her thoughts are not "created" by her, but instead they are "synthesized" by her. They are combinations of all of the other people's thoughts that she has come across and put preferences on. If she didn't own them, as the original authors presumably would, then her profiting off of them is illegal. And if you don't own her thoughts because you pay for the class, then she doesn't own her teachers thoughts and is profiting off of them. Education is void!!
The difference in pirating and sharing is that pirating is taking other people's things, then profiting off of them. Sharing doesn't allow you to profit off of the distribution of others work.
I think your professor might be afraid of being plagarized.
Schools are labour camps.
I'm pretty sure that's a bullshit argument. You're free to record media for personal use. Otherwise they wouldn't let you buy VHS tapes.
So she invented the American legal system?
Must be a genius woman.
Truth. I suppose this is the root of all Intellectual Property being BS.
Other than science and technology specific fields-- Which, although I want to, I still have trouble rationalizing why they're BS.
Does anyone have any real world analogies in this area to help me combat my Property professor?
dont like her rule, don't take her class, now that would one way to combat in the free market.
are people not allowed to form contracts with others where there are rules and limitations or do people need to allow anything?
Willy Truth:Does anyone have any real world analogies in this area to help me combat my Property professor?
Could you be more specific? Analogies for what exactly?
Also, from The Ultimate Beginner meta-thread:
I think people forget that communication is solely and only a copy function. Thinking as someone else said is a synthesis function, but eveyone in the room is making copies eithery by remembering what she said or by taking notes.
The problem with brain to brain communication is one of fidelity. Where an audio recording can faithfully reproduce what she said, we can never be sure that the content of a mind that hears it matches precisely the content of the mind that said it.
Your professor sounds like a jackass. Besides I, Pencil, there's another really great piece by Leonard Read called The Free Market and It's Enemy that I feel also tackles IP, especially on the section Who Invented the Jet? To toot my own whistle, so to speak, here's something I wrote 2 years ago on thoughts and ideas sort of in the vein of I, Pencil.
we can go to the left side of this and demand the government provide each person in the class with a audio, video, and transcript of the class. demand each class be open school.
So what you're saying is...EVERYONE should go to jail for copyright infringement! As a self-interested future lawyer, I wholeheartedly agree! :P

Sam, I'm not quite sure what's wrong with you, but I mostly agree with the Joes who commented above: I like this vehicle quite a bit because it's a pretty darn good choice for the legions of SUV owners who've suddenly started paying attention to the prices at the pump. (Granted, 16/24 mpg--as the EPA has rated the front-wheel-drive version--isn't phenomenal, but for a vehicle of this size and capability, it's not bad.)
Even though the name change is an indication of a marketing misplay, I do like the new, chromier look of the TaurusStyle X. There, I said it: I like the current face of Ford, no matter what my colleagues have to say about my bad taste or poor eyesight. I do agree with Sam that the Taurus X's chunky height undermines any chance it had at being labeled "cool wagon." I've seen the new Flex on the road, and I think that box has a good chance at becoming the cool wagon that the FreeTaurus X was going for. Plus, the Flex offers slightly better fuel economy (17/24 mpg for FWD models).
Still, with a growing family on the horizon, I could definitely see a Taurus X in my driveway (for my wife, of course: I need something more fun to drive!), particularly if the Flex's launch results in significantly slashed prices for the Taurus X.

Originally, we were advised to look for tile that comes with matching trim pieces (bullnose, cove, etc.).
More recently, one of the potential contractors we interviewed said that his tile man prefers to router the edges of the field tile. He said that this would be less expensive and also give us a cleaner look than possible with preformed trim pieces. If we go this route, what kind of porcelain tile do we need to select? I know I don't want to do this with a white-body tile. Should I be looking for "through body" or "color body" or would both work if we want a routered edge? |
Follow-Up Postings:
The contractor-routered edges can work beautifully with natural stone tiles. Second-best would be through-body porcelains, but spend some time in a tile store first so you won't be surprised by what you get. A through-body porcelain has a body ceramic that's close to the surface color. CLOSE - not always exact, because sometimes they put on a glaze or surface treatment that changes the appearance. If you router off the edge, the rounded section you see won't be an exact match for the top. Most often, you'll see a similarly-colored subtly-dotted base. Some people are perfectly happy with this look. Some aren't. (I'm in the NOT group.) Even the ceramics and porcelains that come with 'matching trim pieces' can have this same issue though. Sometimes the surface design or glaze just disappears! They call this matching? I don't! Sometimes they continue the glaze all the way around the edge. THAT matches. If I want a finished edge, I have learned to closely inspect the trim pieces. I will NOT buy them sight unseen, even if it holds up a job. They're just too important to getting a great look. |
We did that with our through-body porcelain which happened to be just the same throughout and it's fine, IMO. The only thing I wish were different is that the bottom shows a bit, the ripply edge. It's not enough to scream about -- I actually made the squared off edges myself (NOTE: my permanent nerve damage is proof that you *DON'T* want to do this yourself -- let someone with bigger muscles do it!) rather than use a bullnose, because I like the angular look better--more modern. I understand some crossville porcelains are through-body just for this purpose. |
- Posted by lynneblack (My Page) on Mon, Apr 16, 12 at 23:55
stonepeak makes some nice through body porcelains, our GC talked us into quartzite because he knew we didn't want trim pieces and said the same thing as sweeby, that if you want exposed tile edges, natural stone is the best choice. |
- Posted by bill_g_web (My Page) on Tue, Apr 17, 12 at 15:11
I'd buy 1 tile and cut into it before making your decision. I bought the Crossville Americana and IMHO a routed edge would have looked terrible. Crossvile describes the tile like this: "Deep hues go all the way through the tile, making the body an integral part of the overall color", whatever that's supposed to mean. Since this tile didn't come with a bullnose, I firred the wall out to match the tile surface; both tile and drywall are in the same plane. |
Permanent? So sorry to hear that Fly! My tile mosaic adventures gave me nasty carpal tunnel episodes, but fortunately, nothing permanent. Of course, they didn't compare to your fabulous works of art. |
Completely agree with bill g -- TEST it first to see if you like it. and yes, sweeby...it really stinks. Carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel and a trigger thumb, all of which date back to that fateful summer of 2006. I teach ESOL so it's lucky that I use the board so much -- I can write on it but writing with a pen sends me into pain in about two lines. typing, too, is a pain -- I have to wait until the pain subsides and then type again or just grit and type through it. Wish someone had even told me to wear shock-absorbing gloves or something. And you're sweet to say that about my fledgling efforts : ) |

In a report from the National Leadership Council for Liberal Education and America's Promise, (2007) it was noted that college students are wholly underperforming in critical thinking and reasoning. Business leaders mirror that concern when they list critical thinking as one of the top applied skills (defined as using basic knowledge acquired in school to perform in the workplace) necessary for conducting business, yet find that only 3.7% of community college graduates can demonstrate it at an "excellent" level and 22.8% are considered "deficient" (The Conference Board, 2006).
"Employers are calling with new urgency for graduates who are broadly prepared and who also possess the analytical and practical skills that are essential both for innovation and for organizational effectiveness… curriculum needs to help students develop . . . leadership, teamwork, problem solving, time management, communication and analytical thinking." (National Leadership Council for Liberal Education and America's Promise, 2007, p. 16)
Critical thinking at Victoria College is a student's ability to apply both qualitative and quantitative skills analytically and creatively to subject matter to evaluate arguments and to construct alternative strategies.
Victoria College conducted the ETS Proficiency Profile on campus. Results indicated that:
Marginally Proficient
OPERATION: SEAL the DEAL will focus on improving this skill with learner-centered approaches that engage students through active learning. Check back to watch our progress.

Iceland's Financial Supervisory Authority fired its director Gunnar Andersen, following an investigation into his failure to disclose holdings at Landsbanki Islands hf, where he worked 11 years ago.
Andersen, who took over as the Reykjavik-based watchdog's head in 2009, will step down immediately, the regulator said in a statement. The FSA has also reported to the police that Andersen has gathered information on the island's financial system without authorization, according to the statement.
State broadcaster RUV reported in November that Andersen had been involved with offshore companies owned by Landsbanki in 2001, and that he failed to disclose this to the regulator 11 years ago.
Andersen on Feb. 17 refused a request to step down. "The continued and pointless probes are in reality a servitude to those parties that most fear the FSA and the efficient operations of the regulator," he said in a letter to the board in February, according to a copy obtained by Bloomberg.

hi all.
At the college we planted hundreds of little blue stem and switchgrass. The little bluestem is turning yellow. Do you think this is from too much water or a lack of it? They were planted at the end of may. We bought a bunch of plant plugs. we put them in and packed the dirt around them. I am going to try and get a picture today to show you! Also, what might we do to save them as the little bluestem planting cost us hundreds of dollars thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
hi everlasting, Speaking only from my own experience, LBS really likes sharp drainage to do well...I have some clumps growing at the edge of my cactus bed in slightly elevated pure gravel (right out of the pit, so it's a mix of coarse sand and small pebbles) never watered except by rain, and it's easily the healthiest planting I have of it. I've tried it in heavier soil and it just doesn't do very well at all, and I'd suspect it hates getting wet in such conditions. |
I dug up some clumps of Little bluestem & transplanted them this spring to an island in the middle of the cul de sac. I watered them well when I put them in, but then I forgot about them. They have turned yellow & died. I suspect that your new plant plugs need a little coddling this year, maybe some mulch & extra water. If they survive, then they won't need mulch or extra water next year. If they don't make it, try planting seeds instead next year. It may take a bit longer to get a nice size clump, but it is actually easier to start them that way than from transplants. |
I suspect too little water is the problem. It isn't easy to overwater in most outdoor situations. If you have an automatic irrigation system in place and you are watering daily, then too much water might be the problem. Otherwise, too little is probably the problem. Although these grasses will be very drought tolerant once established, right now they have very limited root systems and cannot cope with dry soil the way the will in the future. |

This is a fabulous recipe. I rated this a 4 because I added a soy honey sauce that I passed around at the table. It needed a little kick. This dish went very well with salmon baked in the soy honey sauce.
Great recipe and super easy. I added sauteed shrimp and fish sauce too and it tasted great. My only complaint is that it ends up too dry so next time I'll add more liquid.
I added sauted prawns and used all of the onion marinade.....I liked it, but expected a bit more intensity of flavors. I would probably add some fish sauce next time.....I'll bet a diced fresh jalapeno would give it some kick!
Excellent flavours....but maybe a little too much cilantro for my liking. I also sauteed some shrimp with garlic and ginger. The presentation was beautiful--instead of mixing everything together, I placed the shrimp, vegtables (I subbed snow peas and carrots) and the noddle salad seperately on the plate. My boyfriend was beyond impressed!
This was great! I rolled up the salad in rice paper rolls and served with hoisin sauce - quick, easy, and delicious!
yummy! i would be a little more generous with the lime and the red pepper, and a little less generous with the green onion. this is a great summer dish - cool and light but flavorful and tart.
This dish was fantastic! I added about 3/4 lb. of shrimp which I had halved lenghtwise and boiled before adding to the dish. I also added about 2 tablespoons or so of fish sauce which really gave it a great asian flavor. This is also wonderful as a leftover cold dish. Very refreshing!!
This recipe has become one of my children's favorites. It goes very nicely with the Taste of Thai's Spicy Peanut Bake.

Stocks slump after February jobs news
Unemployment rate falls to 8.9 percent, nearly a two-year low, as US adds 192,000 jobs.
Lucas Jackson/Reuters
By CNBC.com
Stocks slumped despite news of strong gains in February job a day after the blue-chip index soared on solid economic news and falling oil prices.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell less than 10 points a day after the market rose more than 1.5 percent in the wake of a robust report on jobless claims.
Among Dow components, Boeing , DuPont,]and Hewlett-Packard led decliners, while Intel and Merck gained.
The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq also fell. The CBOE Volatility Index, widely considered the best gauge of fear in the market, fell below 19.
The Labor Department reported nonfarm payrolls added 192,000 jobs in February, while the private sector added 222,000, largely in line with expectations. The unemployment rate fell to 8.9 percent, the lowest since April 2009.
The number of jobs added in January rose to 63,000 from the 36,000 first reported.
Economists surveyed by Reuters expected payrolls to rise by 185,000 with some investors expecting a reading above 200,000. The unemployment rate was expected to have risen to 9.1 percent from 9 percent the month before.

The knack of knowing what women want in their wardrobes catapulted Karan into the industry's upper echelons. "If you think about it, Calvin Klein was neutral, Ralph Lauren was classical and I was... black. Black and stretch." Her vision of American fashion revolved around ease – she made black basic. "There's no woman who is comfortable with her body. I'm going through the same chaos that they're going through, so I try to come up with solutions."
It's no small irony that a woman who wanted to be at home with her baby ended up outfitting women for workplace equality, and beyond: a 2011 campaign depicts model Isabeli Fontana taking the presidential oath. Karan, who designed President Bill Clinton's first inauguration suit, isn't shy about her desire to see life imitate advertising. "Am I going to say I love Hillary Clinton for president? Absolutely. Chelsea is going to make an amazing president, too."
It's worth heeding her words – Karan has long been a keen talent-
spotter; Brit Louise Wilson, the influential course director of fashion at London's Central Saint Martins, and Burberry's Christopher Bailey both found a place at her label early in their careers. And she commands incredible loyalty from her staff and alumni. Jane Chung, who Karan mentored as a student, went on to co-found DKNY with her and still leads the brand now. So she must be an incredible boss to work for? "I don't ever put anything more on somebody else than I expect from myself. I wash the floor.
Whatever it takes to do the job, I can do it. And I want to do it."
Rare downtime finds Karan in her apartment overlooking Central Park, her Hamptons home or her island retreat on Parrot Cay, where
she used to vacation with her beloved late husband, Stephan Weiss. She has a long list of travel ambitions, starting with a trip to Israel to take in "my sister" Barbra Streisand's concert in June. "I'm dying to go to Papua New Guinea. You know The Motorcycle Diaries? I really want to be on the back of
a motorcycle to South America..." Really? Donna Karan not in the driver's seat? Who's in front?
"OK, if we put it out there it will happen," she says, unleashing that laugh. "A long-haired, ponytailed artist. A nomad, a yogi who wants to make a difference." Well, she does know what women want.
"There is no WOMAN who is COMFORTABLE with her body... so I try to come up with SOLUTIONS"
DONNA'S go-to pieces
"THE DRESS AND JACKET combo is summer's ultimate day-to-night look."
"YOU CAN DO anything in a jumpsuit – I even do yoga in it."

Nokia announced today that it's suspending sales of the Nokia Lumia 2520 tablet in the U.K., Denmark, Germany, Finland, and other European countries after discovering an issue with its charger. Apparently, the "AC-300″ charger's plastic casing can come loose, which exposes its internal components and leaves users at risk of electrical shock. The issue also affects Nokia's Lumia 2520 travel charger, which is sold in the U.S. and several European countries. Nokia recommends that affected customers stop using the chargers, and it's also halting sales of the travel charger in the U.S. Jo Harlow, Nokia's EVP of Smart Devices, said in a statement that there have been no reported incidents from the charger issue. Nokia has also set up a special site to keep Lumia 2520 owners informed on updates around the issue. Nokia says 30,000 chargers are affected, including 600 travel chargers sold in the U.S. (numbers that make it clear the Lumia 2520 didn't sell very well). The Lumia 2520 was Nokia's first attempt at building a Windows RT tablet, but it seemed superfluous when compared to Microsoft's much-improved Surface 2.

We're in the planning process and looking for a fiberglass pool builder in western Chester County PA (west suburbs of Philadelphia). Are there any reputable smaller builders? I'm seeing national chain or bigger name builders, but only smaller gunite builders. Thanks for any help. |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by jerseypool (My Page) on Wed, Apr 17, 13 at 21:15
I see that noone has chimed in here, so maybe I can... I'm in Central Jersey, pretty close to PA. We have two fiberglass builders near here, Pool Designs, Inc. in Yardville, and Seasonal World in Clarksburg (near Great Adventure). Seasonal World is where we got our fiberglass pool from, and they work with four fiberglass manufacturers. They're also a family-run business. We've found that they do quality, no-nonsense work. Pool Designs is based out of a smaller building, and use Viking, and Viking's less expensive brand (name escapes me at the moment). They're website is PoolInOneDay.com, and Seasonal World is SeasonalWorld.com Don't know if they would install out there, but they do mention PA, so it's possibly worth a shot if you're not finding any other fiberglass builders near you... Hope this helps a little! |
Thanks, I don't think they come this far west. Pretty slim pickings. That is if you want to go fiberglass and don't want one of the larger national builders. |

Second Ozone Hole Detected in Northern Hemisphere
Every winter, over Antartica, scientists track the size and shape of the "hole" in the ozone layer, about 13 miles above the ground. A ring of strong winds around the south pole during the winter isolates the air over the pole. In this polar vortex, chlorine ions break off from CFC molecules that make it into the upper atmosphere, and breaks down the ozone.
But, this year, a similar ozone hole was detected over the North Pole.
Ozone is a chemical usually present in the upper atmosphere that blocks harmful ultraviolet radiation that can cause skin cancer. An unusually cold winter around the North Pole is blamed for the hole. The article appears in the scientific journal Nature.

I have seen and heard The PMA Speakers and Amplification Systems, and I think PMA may have struck Gold. The point I think needs mentioning is....a disaster maybe waiting to happen when they leave the pricing of their products to Dealers. If I am reading you correctly? Knowing the Market as we all do, the lack of uniform pricing could easily kill an otherwise High-Quality Product. Not all Dealers are equal: Not in their Professionalism, their pricing, and some are down right crummy! This last point is one that most manufacterers will not admit, or deal with. It's up to consumers to demand better approaches to pricing, or there is no doubt (in my mind at least) they will certainly get the shaft!!
Pro Audio Technology Programmable Modular Amplifier
One of the more interesting press releases to hit my inbox in anticipation of the CEDIA Expo next week was one announcing the Programmable Modular Amplifier (PMA) from Pro Audio Technology (formerly Professional Home Cinema or PHC). Aimed mainly at custom installations, this thing packs a highly configurable punch.
The PMA starts with a 2U rack-mount chassis housing four modules of ICEpower class-D amplification. The output of each module can be 200, 500, or 1000 watts, which allows the installer to configure the amp for different applications. For example, Pro Audio Technology's speakers employ high-efficiency high-frequency drivers, while the low-frequency drivers are somewhat less efficient, so a 200W module could be used for the highs with a 1000W module for the lows in a bi-amp configuration. Also included are a diagnostic noise generator and loop outputs that allow several PMAs to be daisy-chained together so a given signal can be distributed to multiple amp channels in elaborate systems.
A dealer-programmable DSP engine handles all system setup and calibration chores, including digital crossovers and ultra-high-resolution, wideband FIR (finite impulse response) digital equalization. Installers can control all parameters from a Windows utility with graphical user interface, and the front-panel display provides real-time feedback for each channel during setup.
Pricing is determined by dealers and the specific configuration, so there is no MSRP I can quote here. The PMA concept seems like a great idea to me, but I'd love to know what you think, so my thanks in advance for leaving a comment below.
The PMA concept to me is extremely cool! Seems like the ultimate in amp customization. I love that you can mix and match modules to suit each speaker. I do wonder why there is only 4 module housings instead of 5 for a typical 5.1 channel system, but maybe I am wrong? The GUI appears to be very user-friendly and straight forward. To me this product could be the start of a whole new breed of amps.
